It has become time for my chevy to have full hydro steering. So has anyone done the full hydro steering, if so where did u find it, what company? What works best? I have found a couple of sources so far but i want more input on what has worked for everyone. I'm hoping to order this week.

I believe Stazworks has hydro steer parts and experience with these set ups.

If you still have control you aren't going fast enough

Poly performance has a few kits   http://www.polyperformance.com/shop/home.php?cat=97  I would say try Pirate4x4 for some tech for the chevy, but there damn search engine is down so finding help there is a lost cause. :dunno:

If you were up to it yo could save bucks by doing your own.  If it is at all streetable or you plan on driving it at high speeds I would recommend a Hydro assist set up.  You would have to drill and tap you steering box in two locations, and the rest is just like any other Hydro set up.

My truck will never see the road again CA wont let it register at this point. 
The hydro assist is completely out because the chevy has determined it doesn't like a steering box on its frame anymore.

Are you wanting to drop some major cash on a complete kit or piece it together?

You could piece a kit together for around $300 by purchasing parts from a hydraulic supplier.
Thats the way i would go whether it be full hydro or hydro assist, plus if you break something by smashing it or from trail abuse you can easily replace it. 

You could set up a hydro assist for around $200-250, add another $100-150 for a pump for full hydro.

PSP makes some sweet setups and Sean ("Station" on Pirate) @ POS sells awesome stuff. All depends on your budget and what kind of performance you want out of the system.

At this point I just want a full hydro system that will hold up to 44" boggers on a full size. I will afford my trucks budget for whatever will work best.
